So, P4 said that Heaven's Candy was bad. And if he says it's bad, then it must be.

I lasted 10 minutes before the cringe made me want to abuse myself LMAO

Dear Lord. If you want something horrible to laugh at, go watch Heaven's Candy LOL

Day 4. What is your happiest fall memory, and with whom and what happened? I met my high school best friend 1982 - yes, we're still friends, and she was my maid of honor when I got married. She and I bonded over Algebra, Physics and French classes. And about being from immigrant families (mine from the Philippines, hers from Ireland).

@RXinw: You honour me far more than I deserve.

@Gemini: Here's what I wrote two days ago ...

p43425:
I watched "Heavens x Candy" (70-minute JBL movie newly posted on Gaga). I can't say that I liked it, nor that I recommend it. I'm not even sure why I watched it, other than curiosioty because one of the leads is a real porn actor* playing the role of a porn actor. Needless to say, there are a lot of softcore sex scenes - and the opening feels almost like a cheesy Japanese "pink film". Although there are some substantive story elements which could, in theory, have made a good overall story, the weaknesses and flaws were too much for me. Meh.
*Yeah, I confess: I googled him for the real stuff. Also meh. Sorry, although I love JBLs and most things Japanese, pixelated Japanese porn just doesn't do it for me.

So, is anyone still watching First Note of Love?

It's feeling pretty ho hum for me, so I didn't know if it's me or the show? I mean, it's not terrible, but I'm not jumping for joy waiting for the next ep. each week either.

These are my thoughts on it, too. Once upon a time, Taiwan could be counted on for quality, but it has been a long time since that was true. I'm starting to find Tai-BL rather bland.

Not really. The premise is interesting; but the delivery is really poor. Despite the two MLs having some chemistry, there is no sense to be made of the characters' sudden attraction.

To be fair, the acting style is very OTT Japanese, rather than Western natural, and that puts A LOT of folks off watching J-dramas in general. Myself, included. I watched this through though as I was curious as to how these two characters found each other.
